In the middle of my first real winter, I’ve been freezing and dreaming of the California coast. These socks are both a nod to one of my favorite plays as well as a fond wish for warmer temperatures. The final collection will include 6 patterns, each named for a line in the play.

This ebook contains 11 sock patterns, and a few surprises. Patterns were released monthly from Sept. 2017- July 2018. Hope you enjoy it!

This collection is inspired by and written in honor of those who do good in this world. It is a progressive pattern collection-- at least one new pattern will be added each month from September 2019 through July 2020. Each pattern will feature someone who has done something the author admires, and will be accompanied by biographical information on that person and a small collection of websites where more information can be found and/or donations to the good work can be made. At the end of the “year” (in July), 20% of each sale (i.e. 5 of the 25 US dollars on each sale) will be donated to a variety of these good causes.

Welcome to a world tour through sock patterns. We’ve all been in quarantine for a long time now, and we definitely need some inspiration. These 12 sock patterns will take us around the world, to North America, Europe, Asia, and North Africa— no passport necessary! The patterns will be released over the course of 2021, one per month. Please join Claire Ellen’s pattern group for knit-a-longs and more information.

Hi! Thanks for your interest in the Sock Club. This ebook includes 12 patterns, released monthly between Sept. 2013 and Aug. 2014. For full details, please visit the club thread in my group, or send me a PM.

So, how many patterns will there be? Well, that’s a secret. When you join the club, you are guaranteed 12 new sock patterns. You can count on lots of texture, cables, & lace. Ten of the patterns will be a standard design, but 2 were mystery socks.

This is a Sock Pattern Club. More patterns will be added to the collection in October, December, February, April, and June. There will also be occasional bonus patterns. The pricing for the club will be incremental as well-- the more you are willing to take as a mystery, the cheaper the price of the patterns. Please note this is a pattern-only collection (no yarn is included).

Claire Ellen Club 2016-2017 features patterns from the most famous of Shakespeare’s plays: Hamlet. Patterns were released in September, October, December, February, April, and June.

A collection of four shawls in honor of a group of the toughest, most resilient, most beautiful women to grace the silver screen. Each woman faced discrimination from both the film industry itself and the press, and overcame great odds to create outstanding performances that have endured long after their deaths. Recently honored by the city of Hollywood, all four are part of a structure at the beginning of the Walk of Fame down Hollywood Boulevard.

A collection of top-down, cabled socks inspired by Tolkien’s Middle-earth.

The 2016-2017 Claire Ellen club features one of my favorite Shakespearean plays, Twelfth Night, as the source of inspiration. Patterns were released in September, November, January, March, May, and July.

This is the sixth sock of a year-long “Club” of patterns. The entire collection includes 12 sock patterns (plus a few bonus items), representative of different world cities. Click the source page or purchase the club to find out more about the world tour of 2021. The pattern is, therefore, only available as part of the collection until 2022

You do not have to be a member there to knit the socks-- simply download the “clues” and knit away, but it is fun to have a group to knit along with, and you have the opportunity for fame and fortune (or at least, prizes), if you do. The four clues will be released on March...

“Good Morning!“ said Bilbo, and he meant it. The sun was shining, and the grass was very green. But Gandalf looked at him from under long bushy eyebrows that stuck out further than the brim of his shady hat.

Every year growing up, I would look forward to the television showing of How the Grinch Stole Christmas, narrated by Boris Karloff. It’s still a favorite, even as I now have the entire thing memorized. So here it is…

What better sock for the end of the year? It’s a time for both looking forward to new beginnings in January and reflections on the previous year’s accomplishments. So, join Gandalf who spends his time Looking Forward & Looking Back…

Skill Level: Adventurous-Beginner; the lace stitches are very basic and there are a lot of rest rows. This pattern includes chart-reading, yarn overs, knit 2 together, slip-slip-knit, and centered decreases

Skill Level: Intermediate. This sock involves cables, careful chart reading, and complex sock construction.

This is a MOCK (Mystery sock) designed for the Sock Knitters Anonymous group in November of 2017. The “clues” or steps in creating this sock will be released weekly on the 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd of November. Anyone is welcome to participate in the SKA knit-a-long, provided they read and follow the guidelines in the SKA group. Anyone at all is...

Skill Level: Beginning sock knitter. This sock is very, very easy. There’s only four different pattern lines, and the pattern itself is very repetitive and easily memorized. Other than basic sock-construction skill, the texture is entirely knits and purls.

This pattern is part of Claire Ellen Club 17-18, which will feature 11 sock patterns and a number of accessories and other items.

Skill-level: Intermediate, some cabling (one two-cable-needle stitch), chart reading, & pattern interpretation (these are sort of choose-your-own-adventure socks)

“When that I was and a little tiny boy,

Hamlet tells us at the beginning of the final scene that “there’s a divinity that shapes our ends / Rough hew them how we will.” At the time, of course, he is speaking to Horatio about the deaths of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, little knowing that his own death is fast approaching. This sock is simple enough, the majority of the pattern is rig...

This is the air, that is the glorious sun.

This sock is part of a club, which is available for purchase. The individual pattern will be available in Sept. of 2017.

“Foolery, sir, does walk about the orb like the sun. It shines everywhere. I would be sorry, sir, but the fool should be as oft with your master as with my mistress: I think I saw your wisdom there.” Act 3, Scene 1, The Fool

This is a mystery sock, designed for the Sock Knitters Anonymous Group, but of course, anyone is welcome to participate. The pattern is available in four installments, released weekly during March of 2017. After the last installment of the pattern, I’ll include a full pattern document along with all the “clues,” so knitters will have the option...

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,

Creative thinkers should always be celebrated! In the Harry Potter series, Luna Lovegood is absolutely my favorite character (although Fred & George are certainly very close seconds). Luna’s love of the unusual makes me happy. So, here are her Nargles. This one got lost, and is currently hanging out in my poinsetta, rather than the mistleto...

This shawl was designed for the Jan-Mar Knit-or-Crochet-a-long for Invictus Yarns. It uses an incredibly luxurious silk and cashmere blend called “Seraphic.” The skein is a long one, and this pattern uses two skeins. Yardage and gauge can be adjusted slightly for larger or smaller shawls. Worked as written, the shawl measures approximately 8 fe...

I love this scene. Malvolio, reading Maria’s letter is so sincere in his ridiculousness, and the jokes border on too much, which is always fun:

When Hamlet starts acting crazy, all manner of theories abound in the Danish Court. Some believe it’s his father’s death that has unhinged him; others (well, Polonius anyway) believes that he is crazy in love. After Hamlet’s antics scare Ophelia and she runs to her father, Polonius tells her that Hamlet is suffering “the very ecstasy of love / ...

If music be the food of love….

After Hamlet follows his father’s ghost up the battlements, Horatio and Marcellus discuss the possible meanings of the apparition. Marcellus’s assertion that “something is rotten in the state of Denmark” is a bit of an understatement, but Horatio with the scholar’s outlook reminds him that “Heaven will direct” their fates. I find this idea of a...

The first sock of the Claire Ellen clubs in 2016-2017 is a MOCK! Clues will be released on Fridays in September, on the 1st (I know, not a Friday, but we’re starting out here!), 9th, 16th, and 23rd.

Mary Jane (Mae) West shocked and delighted audiences of the 30s with her outrageous and seductive manner. Although best known for double entendres and free sexuality, West’s career included writer, musician, and comedian. She championed other artists, and used her fame to promote their careers as well. She drove the studios to cast Cary Grant a...

Dorothy Dandridge was an American actress and popular singer. In the 1930s (one source says 1929), Dandridge moved to Los Angeles, California, with her family in search of stardom. She found some success with her musical trio, the Dandridge Sisters. The group included Dorothy, her sister Vivian and Etta Jones. They performed with the Jimmy Lunc...

Dolores del Río was the first major Latin cross-over star in Hollywood, and was considered, by critics and film historians, one of the most beautiful faces that have emerged in the Hollywood cinema. With the passage of time, and even after her death, her physical characteristics and her success as a Latin American female figure in the internati...

Anna May Wong (January 3, 1905 – February 3, 1961) was the first Chinese American movie star, and also the first Asian American actress to gain international recognition. Her long and varied career spanned silent film, sound film, television, stage and radio. After success in many films, including The Thief of Bagdad and Shanghai Express, she e...

BENVOLIO: What, art thou hurt?

This is a mystery sock for the Sock Knitters Anonymous group. Clues will be released in March (March 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd). The pattern as a whole will be released on the 22nd as well.

“It will have blood, they say. Blood will have blood.

Here’s another Shakespearean sock, this one inspired by the balcony scene from Romeo & Juliet:

Another Shakespeare inspired pattern from the Scottish Play.

Romeo

Part of a collection inspired by Shakespeare’s plays!

Be sure to have a stocking this Christmas! These make excellent gifts.

from The prologue to Romeo & Juliet:

1st Witch: When shall we three meet again

Please note, this is a mystery sock!

“The Dark Lord had built a rampart of stone. In it there was a single gate of iron, and upon its battlement sentinels paced unceasingly… None could pass the Teeth of Mordor and not feel their bite, unless they were summoned by Sauron, or knew the secret passwords that would open the Morannon, the black gate of his land.”

“At their right, eastwards, the torrent fell, splashing over many terraces, and then, pouring down a steep race, it filled a smooth-hewn channel with a dark force of water flecked with foam, and curling and rushing almost at their feet it plunged sheer over the edge that yawned upon their left… Frodo turned to watch the sleek necks of the water...

“They walked in silence for a while, passing like grey and green shadows under the old trees, their feet making no sound; above them many birds sang, and the sun glistened on the polished roof of dark leaves in the evergreen woods of Ithilien.”

“There is good rock here. This country has tough bones”

This pattern was designed for the Sock Knitters Anonymous Group as their May 2015 Mystery Sock. The pattern therefore is available in 4 installments (with a 5th document as a “cover page” containing general pattern info).

“The terror of the Sleepless Dead lies about the Hill of Erech and all places where that people lingered. But that way I must go, since there are none living to help me.”

The hobbits soon found that what had looked like one vast fen was really an endless network of pools and soft mires and winding half-strangled water-courses. Among these, a cunning eye and foot could thread a wandering path.

Set upon a green terrace, there stands aloft a great hall of Men. And it seems to my eyes that it is thatched with gold. The light of it shines far over the land. Golden, too, are the posts of its doors. There men in bright mail stand.

“Isengard is a circle of sheer rocks that enclose a valley as with a wall, and in the midst of that valley is a tower of stone called Orthanc. It was not made by Saruman, but by the Men of Numenor long ago; and it is very tall and has many secrets; yet it looks not to be a work of craft.” J.R.R. Tolkien “The Council of Elrond”

The Great River Anduin takes the Fellowship past Rohan and the Brown Lands to the Falls of Rauros, guarded by the huge statues of Isildur and Anarion. I wanted these socks to have a carved look to them inspired by the stone work from the ancient Kings of Gondor, but also have a flowing, liquid feel. I think they also look a bit weedy, which is...

“In Rivendell there was memory of ancient things; In Lorien the ancient things still lived on in the waking world. Evil had been seen and heard there, sorrow had been known; the Elves feared and distrusted the world outside: wolves were howling on the wood’s borders: but on the land of Lorien no shadow lay.”

“Suddenly Frodo saw before him a black chasm. At the end of the hall the floor vanished and fell to an unknown depth. The outer door could only be reached by a slender bridge of stone, without kerb or rail, that spanned the chasm with one curving spring.”

The Misty Mountains are dominated by three beautiful peaks, Caradhras, the Redhorn; Celebdil, the Silvertine; and Fanuidhol, Cloudyhead. They are the land where the dwarves lived and worked in the ancient days of Middle-earth, and where Frodo and the Company of the Ring get slowed down considerably by snowstorms and avalanches. I thought the ti...

The Last Homely House east of the Sea was “as Bilbo had long ago reported, ‘a perfect house whether you like food or sleep or story telling or singing, or just sitting and thinking best, or a pleasant mixture of them all.’ Merely to be there was a cure for weariness, fear, and sadness.” To tell the truth, the yarn was a huge deciding factor in ...

Like the ruined watchtower, this sock is full of archways, columns, and twists. The Wild surrounds it and results in two “pathways” that intersect across the top of the foot. Hopefully these socks will help you find your way tramping through the wilderness.

When describing Goldberry, Tolkein says, “About her feet in wide vessels of green and brown earthenware, white waterlilies were floating, so that she seemed to be enthroned in the midst of a pool.”1 And I thought, the river daughter must have it easy— dipping her toes in the forest river when she was in need of a pedicure! These socks feature a...

Famous for its good beer, Hobbit-sized rooms, and forgetful barman, the Prancing Pony meant comfort on the road for travelers. With a pint of ale and some hearty food, a hobbit could happily learn all the gossip in Bree. These socks feature a horseshoe motif, “prancing” down the foot. They’re a rather simple knit with one cable stitch and a bi...

From Tolkien:

Sam’s Gaffer lives at Number 3 Bagshot Row, which is just below Bag End, along with several other older gossipy hobbits, gardening and drinking beer. These socks were designed with the Gaffer’s garden in mind, full of potatoes and other roots, and the rows and rows of other vegetation.

Skill Level: Intermediate due to lots of cables with no rest rows

The leg of this sock features an allover pattern that tapers down into a point over the top of the foot. The pattern is inspired by one of Tolkien’s Valar, Nienna, who took on the grief of all Arda after the fall of Melkor. The pattern looks similar to smocking, but is actually very elastic.

This sock pattern is inspired by (but not an exact representation of) the armour worn by Thorin Oakenshield in the recently released Hobbit movies from New Line Cinemas.

Yavanna is a sock inspired by Tolkien’s mythology. Yavanna is one of the Valar (gods and goddesses), and she is responsible for the green and growing things. She is the one who created the Two Trees, whose light kept the heavens lit. The socks are designed with those trees in mind, and look great in a light-colored solid yarn.

Inspired by the mystery of the Necromancer from Tolkien’s Hobbit, this sock features a leafy motif at the top, some rather simple cables down the leg, and more colorwork at the heel and toe.

The Fishermen’s Bastion (Halászbástya in Hungarian) is one of the key sights on Castle Hill, overlooking the Danube in Budapest. It was designed and built in 1890, and it features seven neo-gothic spires, in honor of the seven Magyar tribes that originally settled Hungary. It’s called the Fishermen’s Bastion after the guild of fishermen respons...

This lace and cable sock was designed with the old-fashioned, homemade valentines in mind. It’s got beads, lace, cables, and silly little cut out hearts all over.

Lace socks that lace up! This sock features a lace panel and a slightly unusual construction as it is knit flat till the heel flap, then joined, then continued as a standard, top-down sock.

A heavily cabled sock, Varda features rest rows, and a patterned heel flap. The sock is exclusively available through the Claire Ellen Sock Club until Sept. 2014, or via kits from Wooly Wonka yarn.

This is the second sock featured in the Claire Ellen Sock Club. The Fraternal Pairs Fili (teal) & Kili (lime) are actually 2 complementary patterns, both written for right & left foot. As the SKA challenge in October is Fraternal pairs, you can “choose your own adventure” with these.

This was the Mystery sock for the September 2013 Sockdown in the Sock Knitters Anonymus group, i.e. the SKA MOCK.

Another design inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. By the end of the play, Oberon and Titania make amends and things begin to fall into their natural order. The lovers reunite, Bottom is re-transformed, and everybody troops back to Athens. As they leave the stage to prepare for Theseus’ wedding, Oberon leads Titania off stage t...

Inspired by Shakespeare’s play Midsummer Night’s Dream, these socks take their title from the line Lysander gives Hermia when their love is threatened by her father and the Duke. As they plan to run off, he tells her that all the stories he has ever read point to this one truth. Fortunately, for the two of them and the other couples in the pla...

This is the Mystery sock for the May 2013 Sockdown in the Sock Knitters Anonymus group, i.e. the SKA MOCK.

This pattern is inspired by Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream, particularly the final speech Puck delivers to the audience, asking them for their applause. I love this speech, but it made no sense to design a sock with “hands” in the title, so this pattern is intended to keep your fingers nice and toasty.

This pattern was exclusive to the Wooly Wonka Heroines Accessories Club until April 2014.

This pattern was designed for the Drachenwolle 2012 anniversary!

The Red Lady is a pirate queen known for causing trouble on boats. She would dress as an “entertainer” in order to get aboard, then perform a strip tease, revealing (gasp!) trousers!!! And a sword. After killing all the men aboard, she would take the ship out to sea. What a lady!

** This pattern is exclusive to the KAL until 21 Dec. 2012**

Puck’s foolishness in Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” keeps the play interesting, as he confuses lovers, mixes up Athenians, and plays tricks on the Fairy Queen. This sock is just as lively-- happily accommodating variegated yarns, it is basically a ribbed sock, with a pattern of lines that interlink in interesting ways. This would be...

The pattern is only available to those in the KAL at the moment. Pattern will be publicly available 21 Dec.

Inspired by Tolkien’s character, Rosie Cotton waits faithfully for her Sam to come home to her.

There isn’t a single straight line on this sock! Have fun looking for one. Inspired by Tolkien’s River-daughter, this sock ripples and bubbles its way down the wearer’s leg.

Inspired by the Lady of Light in Tolkien’s masterpiece, this sock exudes simple elegance.

Inspired by Tolkien’s character, Eowyn, these socks are both strong and feminine. In lieu of paying for these socks, please consider a donation to the American Cancer Society at www.cancer.org. Thanks!

Originally Arwenknits’ idea, these socks are child sized! and inspired by Elanor Gamgee, daughter of Rosie and Sam.

The pattern is inspired by the poem by Gertrude Stein, and includes an allover pattern coupled with a cable and bobbles.

A great cardigan for springtime, or any time when a coverup is a nice idea. I live near the ocean, so my niece wears hers on foggy mornings.

Made for my brother’s big feet, this is a top-down sock with a very subtle pattern. The pattern is charted only, no description, but it’s fairly easy to follow. The texture is entirely knit/purl based, and so it knits up pretty quickly. I’m not certain how much yarn you’ll need, it depends on how big the feet are you’re trying to cover. I used ...

A basic sock with a complicated look. The panels are created by increasing and reducing stitches, no cables. The goofy name is from my mother, who stands at the front porch and waves every time I leave her house. Those are her feet, doing just that, in the photo.
